Arabia generating with very few trees in single player skirmish

Age of Empires II: DE II - Report a Bug
1

Game Version:

  • Build: 101.103.10863.0 (#141935)
  • Platform: Steam
  • Operating System: Windows 11
  • Gamertag: Shaky

Issue:

In a single player skirmish with only one player (me), no opponents, Arabia generated with almost no trees. I quit the game (i.e., the map) and restarted a new one and it happened two more times in a row. Closing the application and restarting fixed the problem.

Reproduction Steps:

Don’t have a reliable reproduction, but I was using the recommended settings (changed mode to Random Map, then clicked yes on the popup asking if I want to use recommended settings). Then I changed the map to Arabia.

ATTACHMENTS:

Here are screenshots of all three games and the recorded game of the first time it happened: AOE2 Arabia Bug - Google Drive

Happened to me too on Arabia skirmish against the AI. Twice in a row–restarting the game resolved the issue. Steam version Win10.

The bigger the game gets, the higher the probability of encountering all kinds of errors, isn’t it? What I wonder is: is it due to changes to already existing files, or a consequence of new features and content affecting the “old” scripting not being fully compatible? Anyway, a fix would be great.
